Today is Labour Day, May 1st, or the International Workers Day as it is call here in Ex-Communist countries. Already yesterday people packed their stuff and went on a four day camping trip to a nearest park or some piece of woodland. In my town we go to the shores of a canal that runs outside it.

But Americans NEVER take off work! Doesn't anyone realize that? Americans never take vacations, we work 80 hours a week, and when we are FORCED to take our 3 days off a year, we just watch TV. Plus, if malls were closed when we DO take a day off, we flip out and start shooting people because we're overworked.
